In Hawaii
Pfc. Roland Neal, whose wife,

Regiment, used the combat tech
niques it learned during the year.
The Island of Hawaii is 200 miles
south of the 25th’s regular station
at Schofield Barracks on Oahu.
Neal is assigned to the battalion’s
Company F. He entered the Army
in December, 1954, and completed
basic training at Fort Jackson. S.

A driver violation was noted in
57 per cent of the fatal auto smash

It means, according to a Motor Ve

acting unlawfully, unsafely and
unwisely at the time death struck.
Road and vehicle defects ac
counted for six per cent of the fa
tal crashes.
